Junun Ki Fasl Aai baDh Gai Tauqir Patthar Ki

Rasheed Lakhnavi

junun ki fasl aa.i baḌh ga.i tauqir patthar ki

sar-e-shorida ḳhud karne laga tadbir patthar ki

ye mushkil kis tarah hal ho nahin shamshir patthar ki

dil-e-sayyad patthar gardan-e-naḳhchir patthar ki

bina a.ina chamki kis qadar taqdir patthar ki

tumhare ru-ba-ru aaya zahe tauqir patthar ki

hamare josh-e-vahshat ne ye ham ko rang dikhlaya

na kuchh taqsir laḌkon ki na kuchh taqsir patthar ki

nishan kuchh aap bhi kar den hua dafn aap ka majnun

pa.e tariḳh rehlat kijiye tadbir patthar ki

ragon men meri peshani ki josh-e-ḳhun hua paida

hikayat likh chuka jab katib-e-taqdir patthar ki

jo tu samjhe to mere tere dil ki ek surat hai

ye hai tasvir miTTi ki vo hai tasvir patthar ki

na jis men lafz-o-ma.ani hon kalam us ko nahin kahte

chaTakna pattharon ka kab hui taqrir patthar ki

tira sauda jahan par tha rasa.i ho ga.i vaan tak

paḌa sar par hamare laḌ ga.i taqdir patthar ki

lagaya sang apne haath se tu ne mire sar par

ḳhusha taqdir meri aur zahe taqdir patthar ki

qasam logo adab se aankh uTha ke main ne dekha ho

tumhare dar men lohe ki hai ya zanjir patthar ki

dil-e-saḳht ai ‘rashid’-e-zar apna hai garan ham ko

baja hai kis tarah bhari na ho tasvir patthar ki
